postfix + saslauthd: SASL PLAIN authentication failed: no mechanism available

[Ana Díez]

Hi,

I'm working to configure SASL (2.1.25) with Postfix 2.7.1. in Solaris 10.

I'm running saslauthd with ldap:

  /usr/local/sbin/saslauthd -a ldap

And running manually "testsaslauthd" works ok
# /usr/local/sbin/testsaslauthd -u xxxx -p xxxxx
0: OK "Success."

But Postfix seems to ignore the "pwcheck_method". Although I set it as "saslauthd", I receive "could not find auxprop plugin, was searching for
'[all]'", "SASL PLAIN authentication failed: no mechanism available" im my logs.

The file /usr/local/lib/sasl2/smtpd.conf:

pwcheck_method: saslauthd
mech_list: PLAIN LOGIN
saslauthd_path: /var/state/saslauthd/

The Postfix configuration:

# postconf -n | grep sasl
broken_sasl_auth_clients = yes
smtpd_client_restrictions = permit_mynetworks,  permit_sasl_authenticated,      reject_unauth_destination,      check_relay_domains
smtpd_recipient_restrictions = permit_mynetworks,        permit_sasl_authenticated,     check_relay_domains,    reject_non_fqdn_recipient
smtpd_sasl_auth_enable = yes
smtpd_sasl_path = smtpd
smtpd_sasl_security_options = noanonymous
smtpd_sasl_tls_security_options = $smtpd_sasl_security_options


Would wellcome any help. Thanks,
Ana.
